dubb: works great! now i can highlight text without my stylus. cool
scheumanrj: I have only tested it for a few minutes but, so far - so good! Everything is working as described and I can't recreate the phone book reset issue reported by another user on my Cingular Treo 650. What a great add on at a great price!
climber_rich: This program caused a conflict with my Cingular Treo 650 phone book. Whenever I used the stylus to move to the options menu on the dialpad my 650 did a soft reset. My treo 650 would also do a soft reset at other times. When I deleted the program, the soft reset problem disappeared.
milominderbinder2: A simple cut and paste solution for the Treo 650/600!
Press the shift key and use the 5 way button to highlight your text. To cut and paste:
1. Press the center button-choose cut or copy.
2. Go to where you want to paste.
3. Again press shift, center button & choose paste.
Normally the center button will respond as it always did. It is only when you have pressed shift center button that you get the new commands so they are out of the way until needed. Very intuitive.
danielkeder: works as advertised, really nicely! What a cool little app! Thanks for making it free!
keithism: it does work well... however when installed on the 650, in standby phone mode, if one quickly taps the menu, top right of the screen twice, the phone restarts.... consistantly. but it seems i may the only one who suffers this... please advise.
